Description

Every room in this home has been meticulously updated during our decade-long stay. Highlights include a brand-new kitchen featuring handcrafted custom cabinets, luxurious bathrooms adorned with Carrara marble, a hidden office, new windows, fresh siding, a newer roof, a widened driveway, and new garage doors. Additional features include: replaced plumbing with an advanced manifold system, created multi-level patios in the backyard complete with a pergola, and upgraded the electrical panel to be EV compatible. Additionally, there's a modern hybrid heat/pump oil system. This home has been freshly painted and includes a fifth bedroom that can double as a library, all situated on a two-acre lot in the esteemed Unionville-Chadds Ford School District.
Lafayette Place is a picturesque setting, adorned with the vibrant reds, golds, and burnt oranges of autumn leaves. Just turning onto the street envelops you in the beauty of nature that surrounds the home. At the end of the road lies Wyn Eden, a private garden renowned for having one of the finest hosta gardens on the East Coast. Fall evenings are enjoyable on the patio, where you can watch Phillies games under the wired pergola, accompanied by the charming sounds of various bird species residing in the nearby trees. This outdoor space makes hosting gatherings effortless. In winter, the large wood-burning fireplace in the family room brings warmth and coziness, perfect for family movie nights. Conveniently located near Route 1 and 202 for quick access to Wawa or the movies, yet set back enough to enjoy the serene tranquility of nature.
